OT - FTP Clients - was Failed kolab 2.01 install SOLVED

[vincent at acheson.uk.com]

Further to my last, all md5 sums checked out except for
openpkg-2.4.2-2.4.2.ix86-debian3.0-kolab.sh

With two different windows ftp clients (freshdownload and smartftp), both
configured correctly to recognise .sh files as binary not ASCII, I get the
same (incorrect) md5 checksum.

Apologies to all if this is too far OT, but does anybody know of any free as
in beer (or better) windows ftp clients which handle .sh files correctly?

Many thanks

Vincent

- right on the money!

Logged in using freenx, re-downloaded using konqueror - and all is now
chugging away happily and should be done in time for breakfast ;-)

Thanks also for the tutorial about openpkg.
